I was having so much fun there with Michael. I did not have to share him with anyone else. We spend the day on the beach there by the little place he had rented for us to stay at.

It was hard to think we were here for the weekend. And I would be heading back. I loved having him all to myself. Michael jogged over to the little hot dog stand. And I was waiting for him as I sat on a towel on the beach. Gazing out at the ocean.

"Hi" someone greets me.

I glance up to see a handsome tall man looming over me. "Hi" I say.

"Is your name Tara?" he asks me hopefully.

I shake my head. "Tara, no" I laugh.

"Sorry you look like my dear old friend Tara. I miss her so much. I was hoping this summer she would be around here. And I could reconnect. Tara would only come to this town on holidays with her family. She had been a summer lover of mine" he rambles on. "My name is Brad" he tells me. He offers to shake my hand. I shake his.

"Pleasure to meet you Brad. My name is Nika" I say.

"Are you here alone? Maybe we could take a walk get to know each other more?" he offers.

I shake my head. "Sorry my husband Mike would mot care for that" I say.

"Sorry I see the ring now. I really thought you were Tara. I wish she would come back" he sighs. "I never got over her. I wish if she did come around there were so many things left unsaid. I had told her that long distance would not work for me. But it will. I want to make things right. But she has moved on I am sure" he mutters.

"Who knows maybe one day Tara will show up! You never know" I say to him.

"Doubt it" he mutters.

Brad was a handsome man. Not as adorable as my Mike. But handsome. He was taller than me. He had sandy blond hair. He was so tall I had to peer my neck up to see him. He had sky blue eyes. They were stunning. He had his sunglasses on his head. He was shirtless. He was so tan. He had on flip flops to.

"Brad come play with us! We need another player!" some girl calls out to him.

They were playing volleyball.

Brad was not so lonely after all....

"Be right there ladies" he calls back to them.

"Listen it was nice to talk to you" he says. "Are you living here? Or staying for a vacay?" he asks me.

"For a romantic honeymoon" I state.

"Point taken. You are taken" he laughs.

"Happily, taken" I add.

"I can see that" he tells me.
